Crackerjacks, Bay of Pigs Sequel and Self-Deportation
January 23rd, 2012

The following is a statement from TDP spokesman Anthony Gutierrez on tonight’s GOP presidential debate in Florida which included Newt Gingrich saying his proposal to spur the space program would include “offering prizes”, calling for a “second Bay of Pigs” and Mitt Romney proposing “self-deportation” as an immigration policy.

“I’m sure the folks who rely on the jobs and economic benefits generated by the Johnson Space Center are happy to hear that Gingrich has a plan modeled on CrackerJacks*.

Amazingly, Gingrich’s plan to give out prizes for space exploration was actually overshadowed by his call for a second Bay of Pigs and Romney presenting self-deportation as an immigration policy.

Somehow, with Michelle Bachmann and Rick Perry out of the race, this group of Republican contenders were able to come up with proposals so crazy as to make Ron Paul seem like the moderate voice of reason.”
